With heavy load of SSL handshakes, the application gets stuck on java.security.Provider.getService(String, String)

ADDITIONAL SYSTEM INFORMATION :
Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
java version "1.8.0_172"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_172-b11)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.172-b11, mixed mode)

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
With heavy load of many ssl handshakes using apache http-client, the application hangs. Here is a link to JFR snapshot https://www.dropbox.com/s/cpgx406vkqpvc80/2018-06-25_08-11-23.jfr.zip?dl=0 where

java.security.Provider.getService(String, String)
   sun.security.jca.ProviderList$ServiceList.tryGet(int)
      sun.security.jca.ProviderList$ServiceList.access$200(ProviderList$ServiceList, int)
         sun.security.jca.ProviderList$ServiceList$1.hasNext()

average call is 5.5 sec.
